Osobliwe, niepodobne do innych, eseje Eliota Weinbergera przesuwają granice gatunku, oscylują między prozą poetycką a naukowym zapisem czy opowiadaniem. Autor, znawca kultury starożytnych Chin i Ameryki Południowej, tłumacz Borgesa, Paza i poezji chińskiej na język angielski, dzieli się tu swoimi pasjami antropologa, archeologa, miłośnika natury i wprowadza nas w świat zapomnianych wierzeń, mało znanych zjawisk, fascynujących analogii, zadziwiających powiązań między kulturami.

Karmic Traces: 1993-1999
ISBN: 9780811214568 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For the past twenty years, Eliot Weinberger has been taking the essay far beyond the borders of literary criticism or personal journalism and into the realm of poetry and narrative. Full of stories, yet written in a condensed, imagistic language, his essays are works of the imagination where all the facts are verifiable. As entertaining as fiction and as vivid as poems, making unexpected stops in odd corners of the globe or forgotten moments in human history, erudite, politically engaged, and acerbically witty, there is nothing quite like his work in contemporary writing.

ISBN: 9780811226189 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Ghosts of Birds offers thirty-five essays by Eliot Weinberger: the first section of the book continues his linked serial-essay, An Elemental Thing, which pulls the reader into -a vortex for the entire universe- (Boston Review). Here, Weinberger chronicles a nineteenth-century journey down the Colorado River, records the dreams of people named Chang, and shares other factually verifiable discoveries that seem too fabulous to possibly be true. The second section collects Weinberger's essays on a wide range of subjects--some of which have been published in...

Written for publication in magazines abroad, translated into sixteen languages, and collected here for the first time, Eliot Weinberger's chronicles of the Bush era range from first-person journalism to political analysis to a kind of documentary prose poetry.

The Green Child is the only novel by Herbert Read the famous English poet, anarchist, and literary critic. First published by New Directions in 1948, it remains a singular work of bewildering imagination and radiance. The author considered it a philosophical myth akin to Plato s cave. Olivero, the former dictator of a South American country, has returned to his native England after faking his own assassination. On a walk he sees, through a cottage window, a green-skinned young girl tied to a chair. He watches in horror as the kidnapper forces the girl to drink lamb s blood...

Altazor
ISBN: 9780819566782 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Often compared with Apollinaire as the first and liveliest avant-garde poet in his language, Vicente Huidobro was a one-man movement ("Creationism") in the modernist swirl of Paris and Barcelona between the two World Wars. His masterpiece was the 1931 book-length epic Altazor, a Machine Age paean to flight that sends its hero (Altazor, the "antipoet") hurtling through Einsteinian space at light speed. Perhaps the fastest-reading long poem of the century, and certainly the wildest, Altazor rushes through the universe in a lyrical babble of bird-languages, rose-languages, puns, neologisms, and...

Unlock: Poems
ISBN: 9780811214476 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Bei Dao, the internationally acclaimed Chinese poet, has been the poetic conscience of the dissident movements in his country for over twenty years. He has been in exile since the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989.
Unlock presents forty-nine new poems written in the United States, and may well be Bei Dao's most powerful work to date. Complex, full of startling and sometimes surreal imagery, sudden transitions, and oblique political references, and often embedding bits of bureaucratic speech and unexpected slang, his poetry has been compared to that of Paul Celan and Cesar Vallejo: poets who...
